It's confusing, because she gets the sense that his touch has always been
gentle, even back on the planet, even when he was throwing and pinning her
to the ground. It was never about hurting her. But everything is all mixed
up and she can't be sure any of it is true. What feels true is the thump of
her heart and the way her stomach pulls tight under his palm. Carolyn is
panting against his mouth, blue eyes open wide because she's too wrapped up
in this to be afraid to meet his strange gaze.
She lets go of his wrist, giving him permission to touch her where he
pleases and her own hand drifts up his arm to his shoulder. He looms over
her. Too big for the bed. Too big for the room. Carolyn swallows back a
gasp and gives her attention to his belt instead.
